Join our private excursion led by a resident marine biologist to explore the vibrant coral reefs of the East Coast and learn about local conservation. Discover how to identify unique marine species and gain insight into our restoration programs.
When guests arrive at the meeting point, they will be welcomed by our resident marine biologist and given a short introduction to the experience ahead. The activity begins with a relaxed, informative briefing on the coral reef ecosystem in Mauritius, highlighting key local species and the threats reefs are currently facing. Guests will learn how to identify various corals and fish, as well as the restoration techniques we’re using to protect and revive these habitats.
Following the briefing, the group will board a boat and head out to a nearby shallow reef site selected for its biodiversity and visibility. Once in the water, the marine biologist will guide the snorkel, helping guests spot and interpret the species they studied earlier—such as butterflyfish, parrotfish, and living coral formations. The excursion is interactive, with guests encouraged to ask questions and engage with the environment.
After the snorkel, everyone returns to shore for a short debrief, where the biologist shares insights into the importance of reef health and how guests can contribute to ocean conservation. The experience ends with a renewed appreciation for Mauritius’ marine life and a deeper understanding of our conservation mission.
Depending on location of stay, we can accomodate collection and drop-off at our dive resort.
